October 07, 2008 - On Saturday, September 27, 2008 Ridgeview Valley’s historic valley rang to the Celtic sounds of Wolf Creek Session playing a charitable concert for Cindy’s Fund. This wonderful event marked the initiation of the outdoor amphitheatre as the newest amenity to be added at Ridgeview Valley, Deep Creek’s newest full amenity planned community.
Residents and prospective buyers enjoyed a pre-concert party while the band set up in the barn doorway, and perfected their acoustics. The music came to life around 7pm to the joy of approximately 100 people in attendance. Food and drink was provided by Jearbryo’s, on Mosser Road, serving their famous Crab Cakes and The Lakeside Creamery, on Rt. 219, serving their award winning homemade ice cream. Both donated a portion of their proceeds to Cindy’s Fund. Concert goers brought chairs and blankets and sat under the threatening Garrett County skies. The damp weather didn’t dampen spirits as Wolf Creek Session played their high-energy jigs and reels.
Wolf Creek Session offers up an exciting and unique blend of Appalachian tunes with traditional and contemporary Celtic roots, sprinkled with original song and stories. From high-energy jigs and reel to their more modern descendants, their music is quickly landing them on prestigious American stages like the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage in Washington D.C., a scheduled appearance at the Charleston Cultural Center, and internationally with a spring tour of France.
Cindy’s Fund, Ridgeview Valley’s charity of choice, is a local charity established in memory of Cindy Kutchman that raises money for cancer education and screening programs. Cancer will attack one in three women and one in two men in Garrett County. Cindy’s Fund has already been successful in helping to save lives in our community through its support of cancer screening programs in Garrett County. These programs have brought screening directly to more than 800 uninsured persons and discovered more than 30 cancers of the breast, cervix, colon, skin and ovary in the last 3 and a half years. Screening leads to early detection of cancer and early detection is the key to survival.
Ridgeview Valley is planning a wide array of charitable events for 2009. To view the schedule of events visit the Ridgeview website at www.ridgeviewvalley.com or call the Preview Center at 301-387-4040.
